This raises an interesting question, with the advent of artificial intelligence in conjunction with robots, it'll be more likely than not that the Pizzas will have more consistency, and less variation, will it mean that Pizza makers will have more of an artistic quality since their numbers will eventually be reduced due to the influx of quality robots coming into the fast food scene?

"human attendants sprinkle up to 40% too much cheese" - with that attitude they're not going to be taking over anytime soon.
Too much cheese. The absolute gall.

They said it’s “glopping up the pies” as if that’s even a word or a negative.

Robots will be able to make whatever they are built to make, including excellent Neapolitans. But considering the huge numbers of people who love and consume really 4th rate pizza, the robots will only be as good as people’s taste.

This is kind of legit. AI is trained on existing data, and if the general preference is towards commercial, non-authentic pizza, then the training data will be skewed towards that kind of pizza.
